Sylvanus: Rise of the Demon by R.P. O'Ryan
Sylvanus: Rise of the Demon – Book of Alce – Chapter One
They thought he was the savior.
In a world sister to ours, an ancient prophecy tells of the coming of the Promised One, who would restore peace and harmony to the lands.
A war is brewing on a far-off island called Ortet, where half of the humans can fly. From the ranks of the skyborne army rises an accidental heroine, an angel-like amazon, Geolufeoer. When the enemy attacks, the rookie Geolufeoer confronts the land’s greatest threat, the rogue Keeper of the Species, named Sceagga.
Sceagga is almost defeated until, in one careless moment, he touches Geolufeoer.
The consequences of that touch spread across their world and our primitive earth.
In Rise of the Demon, the trilogy’s first volume, a beast rises, and his mission is to destroy all of creation, including earth.
In the Pacific Northwest, a young shaman-to-be, Dancing Elk, becomes entangled in the ancient prophecy. With his family, his tribe, and his world at stake, the only way to survive is to stop the demon.
The only problem….he doesn’t know how.
